Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Number of Participants Who Completed the Study Dental Procedure Without Need for Rescue by Injection of Local Anesthetic.

    If the participant does not have sufficient anesthesia to complete the Study Dental Procedure, the participant is given a rescue injection of local anesthetic and is considered a failure for this outcome.

    at 14 minutes with a 3 minute window

Secondary Outcomes (7)

  • Naris Examination (NE) to Assess Reactions to the Study Drug.

    At Baseline and 120 Minutes

  • Systolic Blood Pressure

    At Baseline, 12 minutes, and 120 minutes

  • Diastolic Blood Pressure

    At Baseline, 12 minutes, and 120 minutes

  • Heart Rate

    At Baseline, 12 minutes, and 120 minutes

You may qualify if:

  • Male or female 3-17 years of age inclusive.

  • Patency of the naris ipsilateral to the tooth undergoing the Study Dental Procedure.
  • Minimum weight: Subjects in Cohorts A and B (age 6 and above) must weigh at least 20kg (44 lb.). Subjects in Cohort C (age 3 and above) must weigh at least 10kg (22 lb.).

You may not qualify if:

  • Use of a monoamine oxidase inhibitor within the 3 weeks preceding study entry.
  • Nursing, pregnant, suspected of being pregnant, or trying to become pregnant. (Females of child-bearing potential will be required to take a urine pregnancy test on the day of, but prior to, study drug administration to rule out pregnancy.)
  • Inadequately controlled thyroid disease of any type.
  • Use of any investigational drug (including Kovacaine Mist) and/or participation in any clinical trial within 30 days of study participation.
  • Frequent nose bleeds (≥ 5 per month).
  • Anticipated need for use of oxymetazoline or phenylephrine nasal spray, nasal irrigation, or other nasal or oral decongestant on the day of the study procedure.
  • History of congenital or idiopathic methemoglobinemia.
  • Clinically relevant history of sinus/nasal surgery, recent epistaxis, nasal congestion or sinus infections, or use of a "sinus medication" within the 48 hours prior to anticipated study participation.
  • History of alcoholism and/or drug abuse.
  • Pulpal pathology in the index tooth.
  • Anticipated need for use of nitrous oxide before or during the Study Dental Procedure.
  • Any chronic or currently uncontrolled psychogenic, neurological, endocrine, pulmonary, cardiovascular, renal, gastrointestinal or hepatic disease or condition with manifestations that might confound interpretation of study results or make receipt of study medication a source of risk for adverse outcome.
